Verse1
All my life yeah just about every night I saw my Father as a drunken stranger,
And I heard her cry just about every time she felt his anger
And it broke her body...
Chorus
Six shots exploded through the action
And I brought peace back into our home,
Would his apologies be proven
Well I don't care and we'll never know
Verse2
So I walked away thinking his debt was paid but all I had was
My mother, the shotgun and the Blues
